Magic Tricks

For the normal routine, these paddle-move gem sticks work just fine. But...I would spend the extra money and move up to the "Jumping Gems" by Uday. These sticks are made very cheaply and take away from the effect because they look "plastic." It takes a little more effort to get the routine right because the paddles are not refined at the edges which can sometimes make it difficult to produce the effect without someone seeing the "move". I use these for practice now, so when I use the higher quality set, it goes much more smoothly. Spend the extra money for the Uday set - this is a timeless piece and I still have found plenty of audiences on the streets that have still never seen this illusion.
